While I’m not sure if this is an expression of distaste for bounties in general, Matt surely has a point that *the project* shouldn’t take on the responsibility of organizing them (and wasting time with the resultant cash-flow and escrow issues, etc).

Now, if *anyone else* wants to go contract for DragonFly code, or set up a site/project devoted to rewarding developers, it’s not like anyone can stop that, either.
